Yeah,
The fan on my '86 Westy sounds like an airplane taking off.  I can't find
anything wrong with the mounts or fan blades.  It looks normal to my untrained
eye.  I find it very annoying but have lived with it since I don't run the AC
anymore.  The engine doesn't overheat enough to cause it to kick in very
often.

How loud are these things supposed to be?  For instance, if mine comes on in
the fast food drive-thru you can forget placing an order until it shuts down.

Please post some replies on this topic.  I eventually want to get the AC on
its feet again.
